Description
An excellent gemmy Smoky Quartz specimen from Val Giuv (sometimes also spelled Val Guif) in the Swiss Alps of the canton Grisons. Very nice smoky brown color, super vitreous luster and translucency with pronounced striation perpendicular to the prism faces with slightly frosted end faces. What else could you wish for? Although the tip has a small imperfection, the specimen has excellent overall aesthetics.
